Dave and Jan, it will be on Sunday the 11th, that is next week. I believe it is the same day as the rugby. I am suggesting that folk maybe get here early and watch the rugby (if they wish) after a bird walk.

Perhaps if people bring a picnic brunch/lunch, it would be great.

Hugh is only here for a couple of days and would love to meet some mites.

The bird doesn't sing because it has answers, it sings because it has a song.

Last time I had people visit from the forum they were confused at this gate. Yes, you do have to go through.

Because of the rugby and because people each have their own commitments, I am making it an open day. Come when you want. I am going to supply some goodies from Maggies farm, just bring a plate of something to add to the fare. I will supply tea and coffee, but if mites want something a little more "spirit"-ual, please bring it with.

Just remember this bridge, if you are going to have a little something celebratory. It has no sides.

When you get to the Crocodile river:

look carefully. This is where I saw my Moorhen, also various kinds of ducks and a Darter.

Day: SundayTime: anytimeWhat to bring: something to add to the table and own drinks.

The bird doesn't sing because it has answers, it sings because it has a song.

We are going to be at the botanical gardens tomorrow afternoon and hope to pop in later in the afternoon (heres hoping the mites overstay their welcome) and dont leave too early. Josh the GPS co-ordinates would be great.

Thanks once again for a lovely afternoon... We sure had a great time (even though work came before pleasure for us). It was nice to meet your mom, to see our cricket friends again and put some new faces to such familiar names.Hope you have a safe and enjoyable journey down Hugh and the real Hugh! Hugh I'll be waiting for your promised "short TR"

Ps. I agree with you Chirinda the road back was not so bumpy but somehow I prefer the road there
